COVID-19 Rollout

J&J vaccine rollout for Morobe

The province is continuing the administration of AstraZeneca vaccine while a new batch of Johnson & Johnson vaccines, developed by Belgian firm, Janssen Pharmaceutical Companies, are scheduled for next week.

Chief executive officer of the Morobe Provincial Health Authority, Dr Kipas Binga, said staff training will be conducted this week before J&J is rolled out.

“Remember, the J&J is just one shot while the AstraZeneca is two shots,” he stated.
